20th century fascism and communism both crashed within a decade of being "arriving" politically, as responses to industrial modernity. Fascism with WW2, communism with Ukranian famine. By contrast, 18th/19th century post-Westphalian monarchism "crashed" on landing via WW1.

I think I'm a neoliberal for similar reasons to why many reactionaries are monarchists. Both are pragmatic philosophies that crash landed towards the end. 1913 vs. 2013. The diff is, monarchism I think is truly dead, but neoliberalism may be repairable for a 2nd tour of duty.
